Chinese retailer Liaow has listed the Ascend Mate for $575. That might seem a little steep when you consider how affordably some of the manufacturer’s models sell (like the budget-priced Ascend W1 Windows Phone 8 handset), but it ultimately doesn’t seem that bad when compared with models like the company’s 1080p Ascend D2, which demands nearly $740. It’s also quite a bit cheaper than the Galaxy Note II, and that model’s already been out for four months.

While the Ascend Mate is only tipped for China so far, with HSPA compatibility on all the major bands (850/900/1700/1900/2100 MHz), this may be one model that’s prime for importing.
